Before she started working as a unit publicist for major television productions, Allie Elwell didn't even know the job existed. However, once she got a taste of the whirlwind of set life, she was hooked. What was supposed to be a five-week contract abroad has turned into four years in the industry, with no end in sight. You can often find her running around on set and scheduling behind-the-scenes shoots, while chugging coffee and juggling three cell phones. She doesn't have time for sugar-coating the details, and gives us her no-nonsense take on working abroad.
